1. "Do not judge, so that you won't be judged.
|
1. Judge G2919 not G3361 , that G2443 ye be not G3361 judged G2919 .
|
|
2. For with the judgment you use, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
|
2. For G1063 with G1722 what G3739 judgment G2917 ye judge G2919 , ye shall be judged G2919 : and G2532 with G1722 what G3739 measure G3358 ye mete G3354 , it shall be measured to you again G488 G5213 .
|
|
3. Why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye but don't notice the log in your own eye?
|
3. And G1161 why G5101 beholdest G991 thou the G3588 mote G2595 that G3588 is in G1722 thy G4675 brother G80 's eye G3788 , but G1161 considerest G2657 not G3756 the G3588 beam G1385 that is in G1722 thine own G4674 eye G3788 ?
|
|
4. Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and look, there's a log in your eye?
|
4. Or G2228 how G4459 wilt thou say G2046 to thy G4675 brother G80 , Let G863 me pull out G1544 the G3588 mote G2595 out of G575 thine G4675 eye G3788 ; and G2532 , behold G2400 , a beam G1385 is G1722 in thine G4675 own eye G3788 ?
|
|
5. Hypocrite! First take the log out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.
|
5. Thou hypocrite G5273 , first G4412 cast out G1544 the G3588 beam G1385 out G1537 of thine own G4675 eye G3788 ; and G2532 then G5119 shalt thou see clearly G1227 to cast out G1544 the G3588 mote G2595 out of G1537 thy G4675 brother G80 's eye G3788 .
|
|
6. Don't give what is holy to dogs or toss your pearls before pigs, or they will trample them with their feet, turn, and tear you to pieces.
|
6. Give G1325 not G3361 that which is holy G40 unto the G3588 dogs G2965 , neither G3366 cast G906 ye your G5216 pearls G3135 before G1715 swine G5519 , lest G3379 they trample G2662 them G846 under G1722 their G848 feet G4228 , and G2532 turn again G4762 and rend G4486 you G5209 .
|
|
7. "Keep asking, and it will be given to you. Keep searching, and you will find. Keep knocking, and the door will be opened to you.
|
7. Ask G154 , and G2532 it shall be given G1325 you G5213 ; seek G2212 , and G2532 ye shall find G2147 ; knock G2925 , and G2532 it shall be opened G455 unto you G5213 :
|
|
8. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who searches finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
|
8. For G1063 every one G3956 that asketh G154 receiveth G2983 ; and G2532 he that seeketh G2212 findeth G2147 ; and G2532 to him that knocketh G2925 it shall be opened G455 .
|
|
9. What man among you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?
|
9. Or G2228 what G5101 man G444 is G2076 there of G1537 you G5216 , whom G3739 if G1437 his G846 son G5207 ask G154 bread G740 , will he give G1929 him G846 a G3361 stone G3037 ?
|
|
10. Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?
|
10. Or G2532 if G1437 he ask G154 a fish G2486 , will he give G1929 him G846 a serpent G3789 ?
|
|
11. If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!
|
11. If G1487 ye G5210 then G3767 , being G5607 evil G4190 , know G1492 how to give G1325 good G18 gifts G1390 unto your G5216 children G5043 , how much G4214 more G3123 shall your G5216 Father G3962 which G3588 is in G1722 heaven G3772 give G1325 good things G18 to them that ask G154 him G846 ?
|
|
12. Therefore, whatever you want others to do for you, do also the same for them-- this is the Law and the Prophets.
|
12. Therefore G3767 all things G3956 whatsoever G3745 G302 ye would G2309 that G2443 men G444 should do G4160 to you G5213 , do G4160 ye G5210 even G2532 so G3779 to them G846 : for G1063 this G3778 is G2076 the G3588 law G3551 and G2532 the G3588 prophets G4396 .
|
|
13. "Enter through the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the road is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who go through it.
|
13. Enter G1525 ye in G1223 at the G3588 strait G4728 gate G4439 : for G3754 wide G4116 is the G3588 gate G4439 , and G2532 broad G2149 is the G3588 way G3598 , that leadeth G520 to G1519 destruction G684 , and G2532 many G4183 there be G1526 which go in G1525 thereat G1223 G846 :
|
|
14. How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it.
|
14. Because G3754 strait G4728 is the G3588 gate G4439 , and G2532 narrow G2346 is the G3588 way G3598 , which G3588 leadeth G520 unto G1519 life G2222 , and G2532 few G3641 there be G1526 that find G2147 it G846 .
|
|
15. "Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravaging wolves.
|
15. Beware G4337 of G575 false prophets G5578 , which G3748 come G2064 to G4314 you G5209 in G1722 sheep G4263 's clothing G1742 , but G1161 inwardly G2081 they are G1526 ravening G727 wolves G3074 .
|
|
16. You'll recognize them by their fruit. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes or figs from thistles?
|
16. Ye shall know G1921 them G846 by G575 their G846 fruits G2590 . Do men G3385 gather G4816 grapes G4718 of G575 thorns G173 , or G2228 figs G4810 of G575 thistles G5146 ?
|
|
17. In the same way, every good tree produces good fruit, but a bad tree produces bad fruit.
|
17. Even so G3779 every G3956 good G18 tree G1186 bringeth forth G4160 good G2570 fruit G2590 ; but G1161 a corrupt G4550 tree G1186 bringeth forth G4160 evil G4190 fruit G2590 .
|
|
18. A good tree can't produce bad fruit; neither can a bad tree produce good fruit.
|
18. A good G18 tree G1186 cannot G1410 G3756 bring forth G4160 evil G4190 fruit G2590 , neither G3761 can a corrupt G4550 tree G1186 bring forth G4160 good G2570 fruit G2590 .
|
|
19. Every tree that doesn't produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
|
19. Every G3956 tree G1186 that bringeth not forth G4160 G3361 good G2570 fruit G2590 is hewn down G1581 , and G2532 cast G906 into G1519 the fire G4442 .
|
|
20. So you'll recognize them by their fruit.
|
20. Wherefore G686 by G575 their G846 fruits G2590 ye shall know G1921 them G846 .
|
|
21. "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord!' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of My Father in heaven.
|
21. Not G3756 every one G3956 that saith G3004 unto me G3427 , Lord G2962 , Lord G2962 , shall enter G1525 into G1519 the G3588 kingdom G932 of heaven G3772 ; but G235 he that doeth G4160 the G3588 will G2307 of my G3450 Father G3962 which G3588 is in G1722 heaven G3772 .
|
|
22. On that day many will say to Me, 'Lord, Lord, didn't we prophesy in Your name, drive out demons in Your name, and do many miracles in Your name?'
|
22. Many G4183 will say G2046 to me G3427 in G1722 that G1565 day G2250 , Lord G2962 , Lord G2962 , have we not G3756 prophesied G4395 in thy G4674 name G3686 and G2532 in thy G4674 name G3686 have cast out G1544 devils G1140 ? and G2532 in thy G4674 name G3686 done G4160 many G4183 wonderful works G1411 ?
|
|
23. Then I will announce to them, 'I never knew you! Depart from Me, you lawbreakers!'
|
23. And G2532 then G5119 will I profess G3670 unto them G846 , I never G3763 knew G1097 you G5209 : depart G672 from G575 me G1700 , ye that work G2038 iniquity G458 .
|
|
24. "Therefore, everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them will be like a sensible man who built his house on the rock.
|
24. Therefore G3767 whosoever G3956 G3748 heareth G191 these G5128 sayings G3056 of mine G3450 , and G2532 doeth G4160 them G846 , I will liken G3666 him G846 unto a wise G5429 man G435 , which G3748 built G3618 his G848 house G3614 upon G1909 a rock G4073 :
|
|
25. The rain fell, the rivers rose, and the winds blew and pounded that house. Yet it didn't collapse, because its foundation was on the rock.
|
25. And G2532 the G3588 rain G1028 descended G2597 , and G2532 the G3588 floods G4215 came G2064 , and G2532 the G3588 winds G417 blew G4154 , and G2532 beat upon G4363 that G1565 house G3614 ; and G2532 it fell G4098 not G3756 ; for G1063 it was founded G2311 upon G1909 a rock G4073 .
|
|
26. But everyone who hears these words of Mine and doesn't act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.
|
26. And G2532 every one G3956 that heareth G191 these G5128 sayings G3056 of mine G3450 , and G2532 doeth G4160 them G846 not G3361 , shall be likened G3666 unto a foolish G3474 man G435 , which G3748 built G3618 his G848 house G3614 upon G1909 the G3588 sand G285 :
|
|
27. The rain fell, the rivers rose, the winds blew and pounded that house, and it collapsed. And its collapse was great!"
|
27. And G2532 the G3588 rain G1028 descended G2597 , and G2532 the G3588 floods G4215 came G2064 , and G2532 the G3588 winds G417 blew G4154 , and G2532 beat upon G4350 that G1565 house G3614 ; and G2532 it fell G4098 : and G2532 great G3173 was G2258 the G3588 fall G4431 of it G846 .
|
|
28. When Jesus had finished this sermon, the crowds were astonished at His teaching,
|
28. And G2532 it came to pass G1096 , when G3753 Jesus G2424 had ended G4931 these G5128 sayings G3056 , the G3588 people G3793 were astonished G1605 at G1909 his G846 doctrine G1322 :
|
|
29. because He was teaching them like one who had authority, and not like their scribes.
|
29. For G1063 he taught G2258 G1321 them G846 as G5613 one having G2192 authority G1849 , and G2532 not G3756 as G5613 the G3588 scribes G1122 .
